^ "Dogs are as near-as-damn-it obligate nose breathers. And even if they can supplement by mouth-breathing when they are awake, they are unable to do so when they are asleep, meaning thousands of these dogs live lives of interrupted sleep as they have to wake up in order to not asphyxiate.
Study after study has shown that these dogs pay the price for not being able to pull in a decent lungful of air and that starts with the nostrils."
